* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Play with a company member's heart, and the sweet, gentle doctor is [http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2010-06-06 likely to go all Mama Bear on you.]
* [[Chocolate Baby]]: Subverted. Her parents were white rednecks, but she's entirely vat-grown from scratch since her parents were too stupid to be allowed to breed naturally under eugenics laws. There's no indication that her parents were in any way unhappy with how she turned out. The only thing that bothered them was the fact that the "name" written on her tag wasn't pretty enough.
* [[Designer Babies]]: The negative side of this trope doesn't seem to exist in the setting, at least as far as we've seen.
* [[Gender Blender Name]]: Dr. ''Edward'' Bunnigus
* [[ChocolateHer BabyChild, but Not His]]: Subverted. Her parents were white rednecks, but she's entirely vat-grown from scratch since her parents were too stupid to be allowed to breed naturally under eugenics laws. There's no indication that her parents were in any way unhappy with how she turned out. The only thing that bothered them was the fact that the "name" written on her tag wasn't pretty enough.
* [[Hospital Hottie]]: [[Lampshaded]]
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: [[Lampshaded]]
Line 663:
* [[Hypocrite]]: She called Kowalski a monster and is surprised when he mentions having conscience... but his latest "monstrous" deeds were all performed under her command, and later his clone mentions that "she always wanted ''more'' like me".
* [[Off-Model]]: Emm is [https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2007-12-02 introduced] in book 9 with four rank pips on each shoulder, and [https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2012-03-21 keeps that number] until book 13 part III, when, between [https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2012-09-23 two] [https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2012-12-01 appearances], the number goes down to three pips per shoulder for no apparent reason, and stays at three up to and including the [https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2015-01-07 last time] she's seen in uniform, in book 15.
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: Much the same deal as with Xinchub. Wants to avoid civil war over the whole human and Terran uplift space, but not enough to do ''lesslesser'' things that could make sane people want to start one.
